GDT: Group A • Dec. 31 • Canada vs. Sweden • Part II

[1972]

How the **** was Virtanen drafted 6th overall?

 

[BruinsBtn]

Was that goalie out on his feet (knees)?

 

[PIMsCup]

Stomach bug going around

 

[joe89]

Tactical goalie change

 

[Classicnamesup]

Yeah, all 13 seconds of it.

He played lots of PP earlier in this game and did nothing. He ruined a great scoring chance by passing the puck to the guys feet actually

 

[WayneSid9987]

I bet he had to poo.

 

[Canadian Finn]

my voodoo worked

 

[JC Numminen]

What happened? Hurt something? Don't think he got kicked out for anything?

 

[hamzarocks]

My god we get it, Marner scored. All hail, he's perfect, woooo.

the hate is evident in this one

 

[ponder]

Think Sweden will be as good next year without Nylander??How about the US without Matthews???,this isnt our year .But we do have some very promising players that should return next year for us .THIS YEAR KIDS TAKE A BEATING ,NEXT YEAR YOUNG MEN WILL BE GIVING OUT THE BEATING

William Nylander has been injured for essentially the whole tourney so far, has played part of one period, so I've really got no idea what you're talking about here.

 

[topshelf15]

Marner will be back next year. No way he makes the NHL with that strength. He isn't the type you rush in there because he is physically ready.

Yep him .half our defense.This team isnt bad, its just young and inexperienced

 

[LeafsMonster]

Fleury lol

 

[pabst blue ribbon]

Lmao Felury

 

[The Drop]

I don't wanna hear anything negative about marner for the rest of the game. Go pick on another player

A 5on3 goal doesn't excuse that he's been trash all game

 

[ShameOnYouZidlicky]

The amount of times Canada gets either a low quality or no scoring chance on an odd man rush is terrible.

Virtanen 3-1 with two guys in the slot. Wraps around the net and shoots at a bad angle
5-3? Pass into someones stick.

 

[stavs*]

god fleury wtf man

 

[Dr Pepper]

From the TSN live blog:

5:55 - Canada gets a two-man advantage when Karlsson goes off for what was a pretty soft call.

The way they've played in this year's WJC, Canada needs to take all the help they can get. Still might not be enough vs. Sweden.

 

[McFlyingV]

Wow Fleury, what a pass.

 

[BruinsBtn]

....and it's back to the over-passing.

 

[Baby Ryan]

Looks like NHL 16

 

[carlweezer*]

Barzal is a beauty ! So glad he isn't an Oiler! Elite vision.

 

[satbank]

What happen?

 

[PanniniClaus]

He needed to take a dump. Obvious

 

[Semantics]

What a defensive play by Marner.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Nice defensive backcheck by Marner
